| Posted in Blog

Thank goodness that didn't take long! Earlier this Saturday afternoon, the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals placed an emergency stay (i.e. hold) on Biden's unconstitutional vaccine mandate. Stating the obvious, the Court cited “grave statutory and constitutional issues” with Biden's actions. It's important to understand this is just a temporary block.

There was a lady sitting towards the back of the room at my town hall a couple months ago in York County. She appeared rather upset over the number of bills I’d voted against in Congress… ever since Democrats took control of the House. In fact, she seemed to know the exact number!
